Despite the sensationalized cover, this is a great informational book about wolves. There is a table of contents to start and then each two page spread contains information about one topic. The topics include Fierce Hunters, Living Together, Sounds and Signals, Fast and Fearless, Super Senses, A Deer Hunt, Lonely Life, The Desert, White Wolf, Raising Cubs, Wolves and People, and Rare Wolves. There are text features like a glossary and index, and graphic organizers on each page including photographs, diagrams, and extra facts. The organization is topical.

I read this book to my Kindergarten class but I did not read cover to cover. Some of the information was a little over their heads but they could understand most. We used this book and two others on wolves to consider why authors of fairy tales may have chosen wolves as their "wicked characters". The boys love animals, and certainly loved this book with its great photographs. Of the three books I used, this one actually provided the most information and was very detailed. ( )
